Front lip removal?

Hello,

I just ordered a new front lip part#996 505 986 00. I have not looked at the spoiler in too much detail but does this part come off easily, if someone could chime in and let me know how to remove and replace?

Thanks!

I'm not positive but this has likely been discussed numerous times. Did you try searching the forum first?

Found a little info on it, but think I figured it out on my own. It looks as though there are two Phillips screws on each side and prob some tabs holding it on too. Looks like it can be removed without taking the bumper off, yay!

Yep, 2 screws, 30 seconds and you're done.

I guess I should mention that it really helps to have a thin putty knife to insert on the top edge as you remove. There are raised dimples along the top that stop the lip from coming out.

As easy to install as to remove. The ones on eBay from bayson are great and less than $100 delivered.
